Take your evil deeds out of my sight;
stop doing wrong. - But if a wicked person turns away from all the sins they have committed and keeps all my decrees and does what is just and right, that person will surely live; they will not die.
- Then I acknowledged my sin to you
and did not cover up my iniquity.

than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.Next verse!With image
